Are generational curses actually real, or is that idea being misunderstood?
In this episode of LIVE FREE, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham unpack what the Bible really says about family sin patterns, spiritual warfare, demonic oppression, and the freedom believers have in Christ. Through powerful passages like Exodus 34, Ezekiel 18, and the story of Josiah, they reveal how generational strongholds may influence families, but through Jesus, they do not have to define your future.
If you’ve ever wondered whether family dysfunction, addiction, abuse, or spiritual darkness can be broken, this episode offers biblical clarity, practical hope, and spiritual courage.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• What the Bible actually says about generational curses
• The difference between curses, consequences, and strongholds
• Whether Christians can be demon possessed
• How Josiah broke generational rebellion
• How Jesus gives believers victory over inherited sin patterns
Stand firm. Think biblically. Live free.
